The Stranger
My life warps by its beasts of woes
depression dogs my day

Myself am I, forsook decreed

A Well-Known Stranger
'Twas a sound I thought alarming, most assuredly disarming;

At my window I was favoured by...

The Secret Lives of Chimney Pots Iv
Pied tidings of suburbian
Magpies,
Squawking and squabbling,
Quarreling ferociously among
Themselves -
Rush to steal
From off the beleaguered bird
tables,
To the annoyance of all concerned,
A much begrudged meal;
Before scurrying away into
Unfrequented woodlands,
Marooned like islands in...

Why Kites Fly
Fear and violence and guilty judgment
display synaptically sharp,
competing "Loser!" skittish economies.
Love and active peace sustain buoyance,
resilience,
robustly revolving away
from red skies of mourning;
cooperatively mutual Win-Win
ecology of evolution.
I want so badly to fly my competing belief kites,
and...

Love is Enough!
All the yesterdays,
With their shadows, haunting
Feeding my heart with melancholic
Memories, floating on seas
Of silence, still as the moments
Falling. Like leaves or dandelion seeds,
Alive, dancing, blowing…
All the yesterdays,
In prayers, erasing the darkness,
Silly moments stored...

Senior Trip To Fold With Honor

A health care debate done for fooling
